We report on a first principles theory for analyzing the parametric electron pump at a finite frequency. The pump is controlled by two pumping parameters with phase difference $\phi$. In the zero frequency limit, our theory predicts the…
The investigation of optimal processes has a long history in the field of thermodynamics. It is well known that finite-time processes that minimize dissipation often exhibit discontinuities. We use a combination of numerical and analytical…
We present a novel simulation-free framework for training continuous-time diffusion processes over very general objective functions. Existing methods typically involve either prescribing the optimal diffusion process -- which only works for…
Most systems, when pushed out of equilibrium, respond by building up currents of locally-conserved observables. Understanding how microscopic dynamics determines the averages and fluctuations of these currents is one of the main open…
Driven diffusive systems may undergo phase transitions to sustain atypical values of the current. This leads in some cases to symmetry-broken space-time trajectories which enhance the probability of such fluctuations. Here we shed light on…

Complex physical dynamics can often be modeled as a Markov jump process between mesoscopic configurations. When jumps between mesoscopic states are mediated by thermodynamic reservoirs, the time-irreversibility of the jump process is a…

We study the totally asymmetric exclusion process (TASEP) on a finite one-dimensional lattice with open boundaries, i.e., in contact with two reservoirs at different potentials. The total (time-integrated) current through the system is a…
Using a tight-binding model, we study one-parameter charge pumping in a one-dimensional system of non-interacting electrons. An oscillating potential is applied at one site while a static potential is applied in a different region. Using…
We study the effect of the flux noise on the Cooper pair current and pumping. We generalize the definition of the current in order to take into account the contribution induced by the environment. It turns out that this dissipative current…
We clarify the role of non-adiabatic effects in a quantum pumping for a spin-boson system. When we sinusoidally control the temperatures of two reservoirs with \pi/2 phase difference, we find that the pumping current strongly depends on the…
We give the explicit structure of the functional governing the dynamical density and current fluctuations for a mesoscopic system in a nonequilibrium steady state. Its canonical form determines a generalised Onsager-Machlup theory. We…
